Yes, four representatives of the SitePoint team (including the two co-founders) will be at SXSW, sitting in on panels, gate-crashing parties and giving away freebies left, right and centre.

We’ll have a truckload of cool schwag to give away: some of our newest books will be up for grabs, as will those SitePointt-shirts that were so popular at Web Directions South. All we’re asking in return is that you buy us a beer, and we’ll give you your free book (and maybe a t-shirt)!

How easy is that?

What’s more, rumour has it that a number of advance copies of SitePoint’s yet-to-be-released book, The Art & Science Of CSS, are going to be couriered to SXSW the moment they roll off the press, so you may even be able to score a copy before it becomes available in any store (including sitepoint.com!)

While you’re at SXSW, look out for these SitePoint authors and contributers who are speaking on various panels:

The SitePoint crew will be easy to spot, as we’ll be wearing our SitePointt-shirts. So come up and say G’day!

And while I can’t say too much on the topic, I can reveal that there may just be another even bigger competition on the horizon (for all readers, not just those attending SXSW), and this one will have the most awesome prize up for grabs.

You better bring alot of stash then, sounds like you won’t be spending any money on beers in Austin ;)

I think it’s great Sitepoint has such a presence at this years event. It was thanks to a suggestion from Molly on this blog I attended last years event. Remember meeting both the man in blue and brothercake (with their new book) last year, looking forward to meeting more Sitepointers this year!
